April safety awareness training
Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, this year all Safety Awareness Training will be posted on SharePoint. Each month a new subject will be presented. April’s Safety Awareness Training will cover first aid and hot/cold weather safety.
Working in extreme temperatures can cause stress to the body’s internal system causing the body to be unable to warm or cool itself, which could result in a heat or cold stress related injury. Both heat and cold weather can play a part in adverse health effects which range in severity from being uncomfortable up to death.
April’s monthly safety training and more information about hot/ cold weather safety as well as first aid can be accessed on the intranet at: https://intranet.yuma. army.mil/cmd/Safety/SitePages/ SAW%20Training%20Site.aspx
After viewing the training material use the drop down menu located below the training link under “Acknowledgements,” choose the training you have completed (i.e. April First Aid and Hot/Cold Weather Safety) and then click on the small square box just below the training title (your name and date will auto populate) then click “submit.” The square box must be clicked in order for the training/signature to be validated. The Safety Office will then send you a completed certificate that you (if a U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) employee) will upload to ATTM at on Sharepoint. Non-ATEC employees can use this certificate as proof of their annual safety training.
Once you are in ATTM, scroll down to YPG – CY21 SAW Training (April module) and upload your certificate you received from the Safety Office.
As always, the training information that is provided each month is guaranteed to be useful, relevant as well as entertaining! So whether you are ATEC, Mission, Garrison, Military Free Fall School, Medical Clinic, contractor or any other YPG tenant, this training is for you!
